There's no stopping that. But we all should learn to think for ourselves and to not just overlook the unknown. We as humans all have a lot of the same experiences but those who know nothing of the subject are the first to say that it isn't real. There is no real way to prove that there are actually ghosts. As the International Ghost Hunters Society said : when there are pictures taken on haunted sights, skeptics of ghosts say that they are camera flaws, this has not yet been proven otherwise and it is getting harder to prove that these beings exist when more and more people around the world are taking fake pictures and making up pretend stories. Maybe these people are hungry for attention or just want to believe that they live in a haunted area. No one knows for sure but all there is to know is that the answers are there, within us all; we have to just to reach out to access

    Most of the stories are fake that are made by the author. Authors use their imagination to stimulate the readers so more people can enjoy their stories.
